I made an ugly wireguard client GUI in slint for NixOS (radicle.network)

It's not exclusive to NixOS, but I've only packaged it for NixOS.

The UI looks like shit, but it allows showing all the configs in /etc/wireguard and toggling them on or off with wg-quick.

The biggest issue I had was with slint. I can't make sense of it (yet).

This was written because after getting a windscribe subscription, I found out that the app doesn't work on #NixOS and the pull request to add it 1) doesn't work, 2) is being nitpicked to death.

It's built into GNOME network manager I believe. I'm not a programmer, so you'd have to dig into what package supports that GUI. But somebody has written that GUI to add Wireguard in the VPN section.

    Yeah, that's not what I'm looking for. Windscribe has 200+ VPN locations. I'd have to manually import every single one. Sure, probably would take less time than it took writing this, but if they update a few configs (or everything at once for some reason), I'd have to go through the hassle of removing the existing configs and updating each one manually again.

    If it had a batch importer or even just supported configs in /etc/wireguard (or a custom directory), that would also be great. But from what I understand, it's a frontend for NetworkManager, which uses a different configuration format for connections .nmconnection and is terribly documented.
